About Me

My Journey

Hi, I'm Claire — a rising junior at Stanford studying Computer Science with a passion for building thoughtful, engaging digital experiences. I thrive at the intersection of design, development, and product thinking. Whether I'm prototyping a new feature, managing a sprint board, or polishing UI interactions, I love turning ideas into impactful products. I've worked on everything from indie games in Godot to data engineering solutions for an African compute startup.
